Basic Pizza Dough

Method

1. Combine the water, yeast and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes or until foamy
2. Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the yeast mixture and oil. Use a round-bladed knife in a cutting motion to mix until the mixture is combined. Use your hands to bring the dough together
3. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, turn to coat in oil
4. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm, draught-free place to rise for 30 minutes or until dough doubles in size
5. Knead lightly again before cutting into equal portions and rolling out.
